drop spiders for dogs with life leech, replace your int gems with vit. 22k hp is nothing. also hedge magic is bad at reasonable gear. 1800 hp per 4 seconds is good regen on one piece. that's nothing. take mass confuse or BBV instead.

no vitality so it's pretty eays to see wh ur dying =P. Even gold find should be enough to find u some decent vit stuff :) I always get to a safe all resist/hp then i go for dps incease without losing 2 much. For me that's around 40k hp without dropping dps.

Dogs with 10% DR are nice, but need rather good gear so they won't die too easily.

The problem isn't with reflect, its with lifesteal.  The reality is that you don't actually need lifesteal.  Sure I wouldn't have to watch out for reflect packs if I had life steal but I would have to spend over a billion gold to get a similar weapon with lifesteal(I got my weapon for 99 mill).  "Playing with my eyes closed" is not worth what I would have to sacrifice. 

So the fact is that I will die if I spam bears into some reflect packs put I wouldn't call it a problem.  Its just something that happens when I'm not paying attention.
Reflect is the only way many high lvl WDs die but its not a big issue that is holding anyone back.

Reflect on a wep allows me to run right through huge masses of mobs while taking thousands and thousands of damage without stopping or ever going backwards (and 75% of the time im in spirit because of this pace)


Thats why its irreplaceable to me, esp after 1.05


im on a 16 run streak now without a single death btw.
all of which are 45min to 1 hour tops

WDs are so fun.

I think once my monk hit 50-60 paragon lvl, I'm gonna restart WDs with some good gears.

This is really true. It seems like the 10% damage that they eat is not affected by their force armor, so they die quickly. Even with GI and reasonably quick farming I find myself having to recast every time the cooldown is up.

They drop like flies with that rune lol.

It's like the dogs that are summoned with Circle of Life passive. Doesn't seem like they received the 1.0.4 buffs.

Yes i also have to recast about 1 time per 2 minutes, but thats no problem at all with lower cooldown build, especially for 10% dr (200 res/1500 armor?)

It just takes a bit more focus to keep them up, but worth the invincibility per say.

i don't know. when i used to use life leeching dogs, they didn't really die much. they were rather pretty tanky for my WD.

but then, after i boosted my dmg by a lot, they just weren't needed.

You don't need reflect on weapon to run through huge masses of mobs. I'm probly doing this way faster because I have x2 the dps. I don't die either.
